			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The CVR 2011 program is designed to do two things. First, to improve performance,loyalty, and camaraderie in the workplace. Second, to raise much needed awareness and necessary funds for Kids Play Int’l, who are committed to truly making a difference through using sports as the vehicle to educate and empower underprivileged youth in Rwanda and Malawi, Africa.Through CMI’s University validated Corporate Volunteer Retreat program, we accomplish these goals. We take the natural lessons learned through volunteering and giving back and apply those lessons to current business initiatives. We do that with facilitated meetings, adventure based team building, leadership development, guest speakers and a myriad of other options.</p>
<p><a href="../wp-content/uploads/2011/03/CVR-2011-Kids-Play-Intl-resized2.pdf">CVR 2011 &#8211; Kids Play Intl (resized2)</a></p>
<p>By partnering with Kids Play Int’l, we can now offer our Corporate Volunteer Retreat program to businesses Worldwide. We are on the road to creating opportunities for businesses to deeply and positively impact the future of countless kids in need. Through this event, we will be able to reflect on the fact that we have contributed to the betterment of our communities and improved the quality of life of disadvantaged children!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Teachers from 11 nations come together to build bikes for disadvantaged</strong></p>
<p><em>from the Record-Courier, April 24, 2010<br />
By Diane Smith, Record-Courier staff writer</em></p>
<p>In a true test of international cooperation, visiting teachers from 11 countries came together to build two bicycles for charity.</p>
<p>The bicycles, donated to Family and Community Services, were the last step in a day-long team- building exercise, said Matt Campana of Corporate Motivation.</p>
<p>The instructors are visiting from various countries, all brought to the United States through a grant from the U.S. Department of State. The program is coordinated locally by the Gerald H. Read Center for International and Intercultural Education, said Linda Robertson, director of the center.</p>
<p> Campana said he led the group in a series of &#8220;light adventure&#8221; outdoor activities designed to reinforce the concepts to be included in the manual. As they completed a task, each was given a component of one of the bikes being built.</p>
<p>After lunch, the team gathered to build the bikes, an exercise meant to reinforce the lessons learned during the day. The team members quickly learned which components went with which bike.</p>
<p>&#8220;It helped us build leadership skills and work as a team,&#8221; said Mrinali Chowdhary, a native of India and an English teacher who completed her internship at Stow-Munroe Falls High School. &#8220;It was an eye opener for us.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mamatha Megaravalli, also a native of India, is a math teacher who completed her internship in Hudson. She said the exercise taught leadership, critical thinking, problem solving and how to work in a group.</p>
<p>&#8220;The beauty of this is that some of us are good at communication and some are good at spatial knowledge,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Everybody contributes in their own way. Everybody in the group is important.&#8221;</p>
